Hate to spoil the fun, but thought I'd relate my recent experience at the Best Western Bang Tao beach resort. I booked this after checking the website, which said everything was OK. When I got there, I discovered that all but one restaurant remains closed, the gym and spa were closed and the general area was more like a building site. I quickly checked out and moved on to somewhere where my girl and I could relax and enjoy.

So, a word of caution about some of the worst hit places - you might want to gauge exactly what 'open' really means.

Bang Tao was very badly hit, that's true. When I went there with my girlfriend just after the Tsunami, we drove the full length of the coast, north to south. Bang Tao was a mess. It doesn't surprise me at all that it still looks that way. Most of the rebuilding efforts will have been concentrated on Patong first.

Unfortunate, but the hotels in the general area of the bay appear to be doing all they can to help the locals.

My real gripe was that Best Western were not providing accurate information on the website. I thought this was pretty bad, and I doubt I'll use them again. Esp when there are so many alternatives!

I refer you all back to that website that I recommended previously. It shows daily photos of several places, so one can get a more accurate picture of how things are. Anybody that loves Pkuket will be delighted at the progress that's been made there, but also it is great to see the photos for purely nostalgic reasons.

Just got back from 2 weeks holidays. Stayed in Salathai Resort which is 5 min away from the beach on Sawatdeeruk Rd. Near Thara Patong Resort.
Some buildings on the first line along the beach are under construction, which sometimes makes noise to those who are trying to sleep on the beach nearby. However, I stayed on the beach for at least 3 hours every morning/day, no problem at all. The sea is clear, except when the waves pick up the sand from the bottom near the shore. During the still the jet ski is a must.
Kata Noi and Lampsing beaches are very little crowded and nice.
Nightlife as usual. Enough pretty girls. Tai Pan in Rat-U-Thit Rd offers nice live concerts till 00:30, and then disco. Out of three discos in Bangla Rd. only Tiger disco is popular. The Dragon and Crocodile Discos are empty at all times. Banana Disco is repaired, nice music but attracts a few people, white falang ladies were spotted there for several occasions.
Cristine MP now has usually less than 10 girls behind the window. Maybe 4 more busy. The choise among the section of younger 20-25 y.o. (VIP-like) is limited to 2 - 3 ladies.
The place had about 80 before New Year.
So, for MP-goers better check out MPs in Phuket town.
Foot massage like places are starving for clients.
10-20% price discounts negotiable on day tours to islands.

Salathai is girlfriendly.
I noticed many times falangs were coming in and out with their Thai companions. I was with my Korean wife, so she was telling me almost every day about that person got a new phuan or another.
I have not asked hotel staff how much is the fee to get a phooying in for a night though, but suspect around 400-500Bht joiner fee.

While prices for all goods and services are more or less equal to ones in another touristy places in LOS, I wonder why taxi (those 2-row open microvans) in Phuket (Patong) charge 50 - 100 Bht or just a short trip?
The same service in Pattaya cost 10-20Bht.
I was taking motorbike taxis for 40Bht in Patong [the charge for locals is 20Bth], but very seldom did I take those red taxi-microvans. They just go round and round with no passengers in. Some of them taxis stay along the road in some places in queue for hours and not moving nowhere. Some are circling the roads beeping at the tourists ignoring them. The price they ask 50 - 100 Bht is ridiculous. Once we were going along Rat-U-Thit Rd and I counted about 30 taxis passed by, and only 6 of them got passenger or two. And I am talking 'bout night time. Day time they are lot less lucky. Why don't they make price more reasonable?
